A question for the camper brigade
I saw a kombi camper at a wreckers yesterday.
Though I'm not into campers it seems a shame to see it rot.
What brand is the camper with the roof being a flip top from left to right?

camper
Hi Spook
The camper you saw is most probably a Dormobile, an english conversion sold under licence by a couple of dealers, I am not positive but I think one
of them was Lannock motors, they also used to sell a high top version of the VW camper, I have seen some of these still running around.
Most Dormobile's had two windows in the fibreglass roof.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for that brother.
As it stands I found one on "The Samba" not 5 minutes after reading your reply.
It's a dormobile alright. I thought they only did Bedfords.
I'll go & see how reasonable this guy is tomorrow.......

Uh Spooky baby... you probably got dressed up in pink all the time as a lad.

1) It wasn't the one I'm speaking of that has the opening 1/4 windows, that is Blackbug's.
2) Sooty, with 4 kids a kombi camper is of no use to me what so ever. I just mentioned this in passing.
3) And young Bronze, Yes I did own a hot pink shirt, & a pair of flairs & platform shoes, but that was the early 70's. I aint goin back
there.
And , yes, I do know most of the Dubbo drivers so you aren't safe where you are..
Well my friends are gone & my hair is grey, I ache in the places where I used to play.
